Congratulations, you've taken the first baby step to an actual dialog by disagreeing with the word "radical". Unfortunately, you have by design or omission, failed to respond directly to any of the salient points regarding the Cloward-Piven Theory itself, you know, the part that requires the bankrupting of America by expanding entitlements so that a Marxist type economic system can replace capitalism. Perhaps you can put aside your attempt to duck an actual point by point debate and garner the intestinal fortitude to go beyond your Beck bias and do some actual research on Cloward-Piven, Karl Marx, redistribution of wealth. I am neither a fan of or a viewer of Glen Beck. None of my references included him.

A speculative but legitimate question about the Cloward-Piven Strategy is whether it is the boiler plate for Obama and the left's economic objective for the future. Perhaps you will be pleased to know that Frances Fox Piven is still alive and well advocating the "upheaval of government" and an "uprising like Greece" with the OWA group. God bless her radical soul oops.....make that socialist soul. Wait a minute, she preaches the overthrow of government through engineered crisis.......you're right........I say tomato......you say tamato.

Consider yourself lucky to be enjoying all that great weather in The Villages. I am in cold, damp New Jersey in between family gatherings and stone cold bored with way too much time on my hands. Can't wait to get back after Christmas. Thanks for the response.
